TLDR
The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Data Quality Office (DQO) has made a number of improvements and additions over the past year to its main tool for inspecting and assessing ARM data quality—the Data Quality Health and Status (D Q HandS) system.Abstract:
The Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Data Quality Office (DQO) has made a number of improvements and additions over the past year to its main tool for inspecting and assessing ARM data quality—the Data Quality Health and Status (DQ HandS) system (http://dq.arm.gov/). Among the improvements and additions, some of which are shown below, are the inclusion of ARM Mobile Facility (AMF) data; a new plot browser to facilitate the viewing of DQ HandS diagnostic plots; an improved method for writing and databasing weekly data quality assessment reports; a new automated daily alert, an improved method for searching ARM report databases (see Doty and Wagener’s abstract in this proceeding); addition of more instrument and value-added products output, and creation of a development version of DQ HandS that allows the present system to become a true production tool.read more

TL;DR: Within the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) instrument network, several different systems often measure the same quantity at the same site as mentioned in this paper, and they have been extended to the development of methods for automated quality control (QC) of ARM datastreams.
